Extract text from Turkish e-correspondence files (EYP)
To convert EYP e-correspondence files to another format, you need LibreOffice or other Compressed software.
To convert other file formats to the "E-Government Document Archive" file type, you need software like LibreOffice or a similar tool.
An .EYP file is an Elektronik Yazışma Paketi (Turkish e-Correspondence Package) used by the Turkish government to transmit official documents. It functions as a digital envelope that securely bundles the primary document, XML metadata, and cryptographic electronic signatures (CAdES) into a single unified file. While the internal documents are often generated using open-standard software like LibreOffice, the package itself uses a specialized wrapper for government workflows.
The main disadvantage of the .EYP format is its rigid, localized software requirement. To open an .EYP file properly and verify its signatures, users must install specific national applications like TÜBİTAK İmzager or Belgenet. Standard operating systems, mobile devices, and web browsers completely fail to recognize or open the file. Installing heavyweight government software just to read a single document is incredibly frustrating and impractical for standard users or international receivers.
The most practical solution is to extract the readable contents. Because the .EYP file relies on a standard ZIP internal structure, you can unpack it to access the core documents. The best target formats are PDF or ZIP. However, be aware that extracting the internal PDF separates it from its cryptographic signature, meaning the file will become readable but will lose its official, legally verified status.
Because this is a closed, geographically specific format, standard online converters fail to process it.
Convert.Guru analyzes your EYP file, detects the exact format, and lets you read the text inside.

The history of Convert.Guru began over 25 years ago in California with Tom Simondi’s file-format database. A former contributor to Space Shuttle development and a software pioneer of the 1980s, Simondi established a trusted resource for file type analysis that was even referenced by Microsoft Windows XP. Today, we use modern technology to process and convert thousands of file formats while continually improving our EYP converter.
